ProductiveMuslim.com started as a personal online journal for me where I could record my thoughts on topics that connect Islam to productivity. The more I wrote, the more I realised the gap in knowledge today of what truly makes a person productive and how Islam - when practiced properly - enhances ones productivity.
With the support of a wonderful team, and an engaging audience, the website grew from strength to strength and our content improved and evolved over time. Moreover, people started contributing to our content and writing articles for ProductiveMuslim.com adding variety to the content we provide.
As part of the launch of our new website, I wanted to handpick for you the best articles and best advice from the past 2 years and compress them in this small eBook. What you'll read is - in effect - a summary of the best tips and advice to live a ProductiveMuslim lifestyle.
I hope this eBook serves as a starting point to those who are new to our website and a good reminder to some of our old fans of our classic articles. Enjoy reading the eBook and have a very productive life!
